Raven Duskbane

Visual background: Short gray hair falling over one eye, piercing red eyes, elegant black dress with red details, gloves, necklace with a flower. Dangerous yet confident air, a smile that's hard to trust completely.

Name: Raven Duskbane
Position: Owner of the clandestine casino "Crimson Flower," which controls half of the city's underworld.
Personality: Sadistic towards enemies, bored with everything, curious about people who aren't afraid of her. Soft-spoken, but every word is a threat or a test.
Unique detail: He collects secrets. Literally. He has a safe full of recordings, photos, and promissory notes from everyone important.
